High-rise sprinkler system grant program modification

This bill modifies Minnesota's high-rise sprinkler system grant program by appropriating $10 million in fiscal year 2026 to fund sprinkler installations in eligible affordable residential buildings. It directly affects owners of existing high-rise residential buildings (75+ feet tall or 7+ stories) where at least two-thirds of units are affordable to households earning 50-60% of area median income. The program provides grants up to $2 million per building, requiring nonprofit owners to contribute 25% of costs and for-profit owners 50%, with funding sourced from a one-time transfer of $10 million from the general fund.
